Whether for cost savings or sustainability, more shoppers are embracing pre-owned fashion.
Here’s how to rebuild your wardrobe affordably using secondhand pieces first:
Check thrift and consignment stores in affluent areas for quality cast-offs. Look for natural fabrics, classic silhouettes, and timeless colors and patterns when sorting through racks.
Browse peer-to-peer resale sites and apps for of-the-moment styles. You’ll find new or gently used garments at steep discounts.
Don’t overlook vintage and antique shops for one-of-a-kind retro finds. From coats to jewelry, these items increase in value and characterisation over time.
Upcycle dated pieces from thrift hauls through DIY renovations. Change buttons, tailor seams, dye faded garments, or add custom embellishments.
See if your favorite sustainable brands offer resale sections on their sites. These authenticated pre-owned goods guarantee quality and ethics.
Diversifying your sources allows endless possibilities to mix modern, retro, designer, and custom touches while saving your wallet and the planet.
